무선 링크의 불확실성과 임베디드 장치의 결함으로 인하여 무선 네트워크 기반 제어 시스템의 안정성을 보장하는 것은 여전한 도전과제이다. 본 논문에서는 시간, 채널 및 공간 자원의 다양성을 조합하여 계층적 클러스터 기반 고강건 무선 센서 액추에이터 네트워크(R-WSAN; Robust Wireless Sensor and Actuator Network )를 제시한다. R-WSAN은 무선 네트워크 자원 할당을 위한 스케줄링 알고리즘과 다중 플랜트의 제어 안정성을 보장하기 위한 제어 업무 공유 알고리즘을 포함한다. 또한, 제시된 프로토콜은 Zolertia RE-Mote 임베디드 하드웨어와 Contiki-NG를 기반으로 구현되고, 실험을 통하여 성능을 분석 하였다. 실험 결과를 통해 R-WSAN이 무선 링크 및 노드의 결함에도 고강건성을 보장하는 것을 보여 주었다. 또한, 제시된 스케줄링 알고리즘과 제어 공유 알고리즘을 통해, 제어 노드의 결함에도 제어 시스템의 안정성을 보장할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

In wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs), the network lifetime is an important criterion to measure the performance of the WSAN system. Generally, the network lifetime is mainly affected by the energy of sensors. However, the energy of sensors is limited, and the batteries of sensors cannot be replaced and charged. So, it is crucial to make energy consumption efficient. WSAN introduces multiple actuators that can be regarded as multiple collectors to gather data from their respective surrounding sensors. But how to deploy actuators to reduce the energy consumption of sensors and increase the manageability of the network is an important challenge. This research optimizes actuators deployment by a proposed probabilistic mutation multi-layer particle swarm optimization algorithm to maximize the coverage of actuators to sensors and reduce the energy consumption of sensors. Simulation results show that this method is effective for improving the coverage rate and reducing the energy consumption.

The data gathering delay and the network lifetime are important indicators to measure the service quality of wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs). This study proposes a dynamically cluster head (CH) selection strategy and automatic scheduling scheme of collectors for prolonging the network lifetime and shorting data gathering delay in WSAN. First the monitoring region is equally divided into several subregions and each subregion dynamically selects a sensor node as CH. These can balance the energy consumption of sensor node thereby prolonging the network lifetime. Then a task allocation method based on genetic algorithm is proposed to uniformly assign tasks to actuators. Finally the trajectory of each actuator is optimized by ant colony optimization algorithm. Simulations are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method and the results show that the method performs better to extend network lifetime while also reducing data delay.

Purpose: As application-specific wireless sensor networks are gaining popularity, this paper discusses the development and field performance of the GHAN, a greenhouse area network system to monitor, control, and access greenhouse microenvironments. GHAN, which is an upgraded system, has many new functions. It is an intelligent wireless sensor and actuator network (WSAN) system for next-generation greenhouses, which enhances the state of the art of greenhouse automation systems and helps growers by providing them valuable information not available otherwise. Apart from providing online spatial and temporal monitoring of the greenhouse microclimate, GHAN has a modified vapor pressure deficit (VPD) fuzzy controller with an adaptive-selective mechanism that provides better control of the greenhouse crop VPD with energy optimization. Using the latest soil-matrix potential sensors, the GHAN system also ascertains when, where, and how much to irrigate and spatially manages the irrigation schedule within the greenhouse grids. Further, given the need to understand the microclimate control dynamics of a greenhouse during the crop season or a specific time, a statistical assessment tool to estimate the degree of optimality and spatial variability is proposed and implemented. Methods: Apart from the development work, the system was field-tested in a commercial greenhouse situated in the region of Punjab, India, under different outside weather conditions for a long period of time. Conclusions: Day results of the greenhouse microclimate control dynamics were recorded and analyzed, and they proved the successful operation of the system in keeping the greenhouse climate optimal and uniform most of the time, with high control performance.

A control application requirements currently used is very low, such as packet loss rate, minimum delay on sensor networks with quality of service (QoS) requirements some packet delivery guarantee. This paper is the sampling period at the end of the actuator and sensor data transfer related to the Miss ratio for each source sensor node, use the controller and the internal ANFIS. The proposed scheme has the advantages of simplicity, scalability, and General. Simulation results of the proposed scheme can provide QoS support in WSANs.
